Not to be an ass, But why would you hit the rear brake?I took a class through NWU on traffic accident investigation. And a high % of motorcyclist's that are injured or killed could have avoided being hurt or killed by proper use of the brakes. Hitting the rear brake only on a motorcycle is not proper application. Using both brakes is.

I feel for you, man... I was riding my Uncle's Gold Wing & a log truck pulled out in front of me... he told me to drop it & slide...
I know what it's like to be cut-off by stupids in cars... :madfawk:

Immediately, my rear tire started get loose and began going to the left. Trying to compensate for the skidding, i turned the front to the side making the rear come to the front as the front spun to the rear.

Well I'm glad he's ok. I mean if it was a CB then he was probably trash talking to some truckers and they found him and were going to beat him or something.

ack, don't waste a whole sparkplug, a small piece of one (bought the size of the tip of your finger) will take out a whole window no problem. Man, the day my friend showed me that was an amazing day. I wish I was into vandalism/theft so I could put that to good use.
